Clean up text copied from a PDF, email, or webpage by stripping extra spaces and unwanted line breaks.
Text copied from a PDF, an email client, or certain websites often brings along a mess of formatting artifacts that aren't visible until you try to reuse it: double and triple spaces where a line wrapped awkwardly, stray line breaks in the middle of what should be one sentence, and tabs or spacing left over from a table or column layout. Pasting that directly into a document, a CMS, or a search field usually looks broken or at minimum unprofessional.
This tool offers three distinct cleaning operations because "clean up my text" can mean different things depending on the source. Collapsing extra spaces reduces any run of multiple spaces down to a single space and any run of multiple blank lines down to one, which is the right fix for text with excessive gaps but otherwise correct paragraph breaks. Removing all line breaks goes further, joining every line into one continuous paragraph — the fix you need when a PDF has broken every sentence into its own line for print layout reasons, a very common and particularly annoying artifact. Trimming each line removes only the leading and trailing whitespace from every individual line, useful for cleaning up indentation or trailing spaces without touching the overall paragraph structure.
It's frequently used by anyone re-purposing text extracted from a PDF report, cleaning up a pasted email chain before quoting it elsewhere, or tidying data copied out of a spreadsheet or table. Because processing happens directly in your browser, you can clean confidential documents without any of that content being transmitted externally.
